Cosie's Creative Corner

To Someone Special The twist this week is All Dressed Up and the stamps from the Art Deco - Flapper tall urban set by Docrafts made the choice easy. Haven't used it much and needed a birthday card that was a bit different and I like the way this turned out. Used distress ink and sponged some colour on the feather and stole and left the rest of the image as is this was then fussy cut. I coloured two, one with lots of colour and this one and I like this version as it seems to pop of the black card. Cut the layers, used a Martha Stewart corner and edge punch, added bling, silver ribbon, and adhered it to a blue card base. Used mounting tape for the image and added clear Wink of Stella  but it's hard to see on the photo. Does shine and sparkle in real life. The sentiment and art deco border are from the same set.

Valentines Card Managed a quick card for my DH for valentines day and he was lucky to get one as it has been very hectic around our place.  The PP, sentiment and stickers are from Docraft s It must be Love collection. Metallic heart brads from stash and ribbon from WIP . This is the reason I haven't been doing to much.  We have acquired a new pet.  His name is Archie and he is a rescue dog, about 5 yrs old and has epilepsy. Because of his health problems they couldn't resettle him but he is gorgeous and how could you not give him a second chance. Did I mention he is also has only has about 20% hearing. He is settling in but hates being on his own. To this mix add our DD's Lab cross as they lost their house roof in a freak storm on Australia day and are in temporary accommodation for three months. Ah life wasn't meant to be easy but it sure is interesting.
